Dating Script Templates
The Templates section lets you control how your website looks and feels. All templates are stored in the _themes/[area]/[template_name]/ folder on your host server.Choosing a Template
The Template For setting lets you choose which template schemes you are working with. The three 'Template For' tabs are: Admin (the Admin CP template), Main (the main ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software powered website template) and Partner (the Partner section of your ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software powered website template). Click to choose a template section.
You will see a list of currently available templates for each template section. In the ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software Admin CP Demo (http://abledating.abk-soft.com/admin - password: test) you can clearly see that there is only one available template for the Admin CP, i.e. 'Default', and it is Active. In the Main template tab you can see that there are many available templates to choose from. The Active template has the 'Active' label near it. To activate another template simply click the 'Set' label (link) near the desired template. Changes will immediately be seen in your Main ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software powered website.
Note that if the User can change the template setting (Options/Site Options Admin CP) is active then any user will be able to choose a template for oneself from the currently available and provided ones.
Editing a Template
Editing an ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software template is not an easy job if you are a stranger to PHP, JavaScript, HTML and CSS. By clicking the 'Edit' link near a template which you wish to edit you will be taken to the ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software Template Editing Section of the Admin CP.
On the left side you can see a column divided into two parts - Areas and Pages. As ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software has too many pages they have been divided into Areas (Login and Public) and Sub-Areas categorized by type of page (Pages (*.php and *.html files, *.css files and JavaScript *.js files). The Areas part lets you define the section containing a page by type (Pages (PHP and HTML) CSS, and JavaScript). The second part of the column lets you choose the specific page you want to edit. Click to choose.
The right side contains a text editor with the program code. The program language used depends on the type of page you are editing - PHP, CSS, HTML or JavaScript. Everything is fully editable as long as it is correctly programmed with no logic errors, syntax errors, etc. You may cut or copy the code and paste it into your favorite PHP editor, then paste the changed code back again. Do not forget to click the 'Edit' to save all changes after having edited the code. It is recommended to backup all template files before making any changes.
The ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software Development Team is not responsible for any changes to code made by the Admin. For more information and help contact ABK-Soft AbleDating 2.4 Dating Software Technical Support.
